Here's a work by him from our collection, "Kozangrodek II - 22," a multiple from 1975. The #KrannertArtMuseum has more on this "Polish Village" series of collages that Stella made in the early 1970s: https://kam.illinois.edu/collection-highlight/kozangrodek-iii

"Each work in the series is titled after a village in Poland and refers specifically to their synagogues, which were constructed between the seventeenth and nineteenth centuries and destroyed under Nazi occupation."

"Over a career that spanned more than 65 years, #FrankStella was seemingly indefatigable, always on the hunt for new visual splendor, and he infuriated some portions of the art world with his protean endeavors, as he left his earlier restraint far behind" https://news.artnet.com/art-world/frank-stella-dead-87-2481352 #art #abstractart #painting

👆87 yo #FrankStella died on 2024 May.04
I've written about #AbstractImpressionism and #ColdWar.
Abstract Impressionism was backed by the #CIA against #Soviet realism but it's just part of #Art history
Frank Stella, his #BlackPaintings (1959) and then black series were precursors of #Minimalism
